  • Today we're going to be making a South African classic, Mrs Balls Original Chutney! Now I can't confirm 100% for sure this is from the Balls family, however this is claimed to be from Edward Ball, Mrs. Ball’s grandson who down this from the original recipe to make 18 bottles of (mild) chutney.
    I found my result to be very close to what you can actually buy in the bottles, but mine was a little tangier which I actually liked more. I see from the bottles ingredients list they're using vinegar & water where as I just use vinegar. I wonder if the original recipe got changed to make it more factory friendly? Maybe someone can let me know in the comments!

    I'm feeling nostalgic when looking at the bottle of Mrs Ball's Chutney. Lived in South Africa for 26 years. Hi from Finland 🇫🇮

    One of the things that I would add is that modern mrs.balls chutney uses a malt type vinegar and brown sugar or caramel syrup

    Perfect msBalls well done! It looks exactly like the stuff I have in my fridge! A bottle here in Safrica costs about R80ish which translates to maybe around $6ish. My sister-in-law eats half a bottle at a time so your recipe would make just about enough for her hahaha

      That's daylight robbery @@Passionforfoodrecipes although it probably has to travel overseas. I wonder whether it'd be that much cheaper for me to just mail you some next time. Do you have some to compare the taste? Should I send you some?

      @@AspienPadda Yeah I have some I ordered a while back! The flavors were very close, mine was a little more tart and slightly lighter in color. But I see the stuff in the bottle includes some caramel color, cheaters 😆.
      I bet once we factored in shipping it would be a similar cost for you to send me some, but thanks I appreciate it! I should be set for a while anyway with all this I made for the video 😃

    Greetings from... South Africa! And yes, Ms Balls chutney (we don't pronounce the "HS") is a national favourite. Simba even makes a Ms Balls chutney-flavoured chip / crisp for us. There are a variety of flavours now, but I particularly enjoy the peach chutney.
    Thanks for this recipe. As the cost of living bites I am having to make more and more basic food items now, including sauces like chutney. Thank goodness for channels such as this. Being on a tight budget doesn't have to mean going without - just make it yourself. All that vinegar & sugar probably means it will keep nicely for quite a while. This will also make a nice gift - use a decorative jar, a stick-on label and maybe a decorative lid with a pretty tag.

    Looks so good. I always thought you had to boil the jars before and after. I have never canned and thought the process looked so long I have never tried. I’ll have to try your method. This chutney looks delicious, I love apricots.
